Diebold Nixdorf – Portfolio management and regular project budget planning/control with Jira
Excel was the project controlling tool used by Diebold Nixdorf until recently, but it was showing increasing weaknesses: “With seven locations, the processes in monthly budget forecasting became less accurate and the quality of the content fluctuated. Both the project managers and the PMOs that evaluate the projects all had to access it at the same time. Excel was not suitable for this,” explains Steffen Lechte, describing the initial situation. They wanted more transparency and control during the forecasting phases so that any potential correction effort could be kept within limits. Based on these points, Lechte specified the requirements for better collaboration across different time zones: mappable real-time status of forecasts, integration of standardized workflows, display of change history, transfer of structures to the following year, and support for multi-user access. Since there was already successful collaboration with catworkx regarding Jira in other areas of the company, it was clear to the IT colleagues that this would now be expanded. After a test implementation with Jira, it quickly became clear how many possibilities this tool offered for mapping both portfolio planning and forecasting.
" It was very clearly and transparently described which decisions I have to make and when and what the scope for this is. The catworkx team's good overview was not only very helpful to me in terms of time."

The cost of lost time and the opportunity for 350% ROI: Time-tracking reinvented and integrated
The TIMETOACT GROUP faced a massive challenge: countless hours lost due to inefficient work logs, duplicate entries and errors that led to high costs. By integrating Tempo Timesheets and SAP, the TIMETOACT GROUP has transformed a flawed, inefficient system into an automated, accurate process. The result: over 10,000 hours less administrative work per year, 100% billing accuracy and significantly optimized budget control.
" Integrating Tempo Timesheets with SAP wasn’t just a technical upgrade - it was a step-change towards operational excellence and enabling our group-companies to jointly deliver value to our customers."
